AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
Split Names is a mixed-rating Google Workspace app with a growing review traction. It is listed in the Utilities category on Google Workspace Marketplace, which AppRanks treats as the canonical taxonomy node for ranking and competitor comparison. 218 reviews put it in the early-traction tier — useful for early-stage stores willing to be on the leading edge. Early-traction review counts are sensitive to single launch periods or feature events, so a 30-day re-check before bigger commitments often resolves whether the trend is sustained. The free tier lets you trial the entry feature set without committing a payment method. AppRanks tracks rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position daily — the figures on this page reflect the most recent scrape from the canonical Google Workspace Marketplace listing.

About Split Names
How Split Names works
Show full descriptionShow less
If you ever need to split first and last names to different columns, this add-on will become a great assistant. It distincts first, last, middle names and recognizes over 80 titles and 40 post-nominals. It doesn't matter how these parts are arranged – Split Names pulls correct units from any name combinations.
With names like "Dumbledore, Albus Percival, Prof." the standard "Split text to columns" Google feature won’t help much since it pulls out name units one by one by a delimiter. Our tool detects all parts at once and separates names to corresponding cells in a click.
The benefits of the tool are enjoyable: • Splits full names in Google Sheets • Tells the difference between first, last and middle names • Recognizes over 80 titles and 40 post-nominals (Mr and Mrs, MD, Prince, etc.)
The utility will insert columns with name units next to the original one. You can keep your table structure by considering or ignoring headers.
Run this tool to divide multi-part names into separate columns they belong to: first, middle, and last names, titles and post-nominal letters. Splitting names in Google Sheets is that easy!
